Get ready to explore the smooth, smudgy world of soft pastels! This beginner class is for youth ages 10-14 who want to experiment with powdery textures, vibrant colours, and creative mark-marking. Students will learn how to blend, layer, and play with pastels in fun and expressive ways, all while building confidence with this chalky medium.
